I'm Approved - January 2019!!!!

I received the call from my surgeon's office yesterday, my surgery date is January 23, 2019!!!

I can tell you I am 99% excited and 1% scared to begin this next phase of my life.

Any other January 2019 sleevers out there yet???

Congrats on approval! It's natural to be scared, but it's so worth it.

Congratulations! It's natural to be a little nervous, but I'm glad that your overwhelming emotion is excitement. This thread might help reduce that 1%: https://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/vsg/6034619/What-turned-o ut-better-than-you-expected/

Congrats! I'm so glad you are excited. Your life is about to change.

WOOHOO! We are doing the Happy Dance!

I have an appointment on Wednesday, I will know more then. Started researching some protein powders, got one today that's not too bad. Thinking maybe late January early February, if no hiccups from insurance company.

Good luck!

I'm approved for January too, but I don't have a surgery date yet. I won't get to meet with the surgeon until January (after his office re-confirms my insurance benefits); then we'll schedule the date. I had hoped I could have the surgery in time to recover before I go back to work on January 14, but it looks like I won't be that lucky.

January 21 for me and my hubby!!!! Excited for you!!!

Congrats!! My husband and I are having surgery on January 8th, we're doing RNY. I'm a little nervous about it too, but very excited!
